Fundraising

The students are encouraged to contribute to the local and wider community and volunteering and charity work are an important part of the life of the school. One of the most popular events is the annual ‘Rag Week’ during Term Two which involves students from all year groups and raises substantial funds for our chosen charities.

CGSG Students and Staff Champion World Book Day 2019

The English department celebrated World Book Day this year alongside the rest of CGSG.

Students were encouraged to dress up and come into school as their favourite literary

character; there were some wonderful outfits from students and staff.

Students also participated in bookbased lessons within their English lessons and during Personal Tutoring. English students discussed the benefits of reading; we looked at how front covers can reveal a lot about a book and discussed book recommendations.

Throughout the day we were raising money to donate to both our library and to a charity called Beanstalk which offers one-to-one reading support for children aged between 3-13 years old.

In total we raised £358.52.

A big thank you to all the Year 7 and 8 students that took part in the Christmas Markets. Our brilliant students impressed us all with their creativity and entrepreneurial flair.

The event was a huge success and we managed to raise a massive £707.41 for the Keating Fund! Well done!
